Love's Secret


Never seek to tell thy love,
Love that never told can be,
For the gentle wind doth move
Silently, invisibly.

I told my love, I told my love
I told her all my heart,
Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears,
Ah! she did depart.

Soon after she was gone from me,
A traveller came by,
Silently, invisibly,
He took her with a sigh

William Blake

[Old Whippet]

this thread is on fire tonight. Tri - heart rending and moving. hes - maybe longer poems suit you after all - I really enjoyed this; reflective, moody, surreal (in fact ethereal) and ultimately affirming. Damn good value!

Possibly only challenged by a dark chocolate Hob-nob as my favourite biscuit

Beautiful choice DT!

But...am I reading this correctly? Treat em, mean keep em keen? You tell them you love them and they run away so you are supposed to be all cool and uncommunicative?

Thanks very much OW, I'm honestly really chuffed that you like it. It was written partly on the hoof and partly whilst waiting for my immersion to heat up.

Ginger biscuits enrobed in dark chocolate...oh...my...god!

Hold on, hold on!!!! wot about jammy dodgers like!

Blind date with a biscuit enthuasist

Malted milk are OK
Chocolate digestives are here to stay
But if you want to know the way to my heart
Give me a jammy dodger from the start

Hob nobs provide sustenance
Chocolate bourbons are pretty cool
But if you want my love baby
Give me jammy dodgers for fuel!

Oh dear...i have OFFICIALLY lost it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!must get some sleep tonight!
